BALTIC AMBER MIGRATIONS AS A MODEL OF MICROPLASTICS BEHAVIOR IN THE SEA COASTAL ZONE
The problem of microplastic pollution is of increasing concern. Behaviour of microplastic particles (0.5 mm < L < 5mm in the largest dimension) in marine environment is difficult to predict, and no field observations are available up to now. Baltic

“Immature amber” — krantzite — in the Middle Urals
The article is devoted to the analysis of the evidence of finding “amber” near the village of Kolchedan in the Middle Urals. This resin is not amber-succinite, but a rare type of fossil resin — krantzite.

Production and preservation of resins – past and present
ABSTRACT Amber is fossilised plant resin. It can be used to provide insights into the terrestrial conditions at the time the original resin was exuded. Amber research thus can inform many aspects of palaeontology, from the recovery and description of enclosed fossil organisms (biological inclusions) to attempts at reconstruction of past climates and ...
